Satisfiability of complex word-level formulas often arises as a problem in formal verification of hardware designs described at the register transfer level (RTL). Even though most...
Interconnect delay has become a critical factor in determining the performance of integrated circuits. Routing and buffering are powerful means of improving the circuit speed and ...
This paper introduces a new numerical approximation technique, called the Differential Quadrature Method (DQM), in order to derive the rational ABCD matrix representing the high-s...
Chip-multiprocessors are becoming the dominant vehicle for general-purpose processing, and parallel software will be needed to effectively utilize them. This parallel software is ...
Building processors with large instruction windows has been proposed as a mechanism for overcoming the memory wall, but finding a feasible and implementable design has been an elu...
